First of all,
I have to say
WOW
and THANK YOU
to all of my
my new
followers!
You thrill me
like you can't
even imagine.
Yesterday was
yet another day
of rain, off and on.
So sorry to all of you that
need the rain.
I wish I could
send it your way.
All I'd ask in
return is a little
of your sun and heat.
We were going
a bit stir crazy around here
so we set off to see a movie.
Which one, you ask?
Super 8, of course!
Was a very fun
movie.
A little rough with
the language but good.
Once we got home,
I played a game of
beat the rain.
I actually won
and got my yard mowed.
Today, I focused on some
wildflowers I have growing
around the fringes of the yard.
I so enjoy
whatever mother
nature has to offer,
in the way of flowers.
The Wild Rose
Technically, I did plant this
as it was a gift from my sister.
However, it is wild
and I do have other
volunteers growing around the property.
Painted Brush
I have a whole
area covered in these.
So delightful.
The Wild Sweet Pea
Another favorite of mine.
I love the way it grows
up the fence.
Mystery Plant
I love this plant
but I have not been
able to identify it.
Do any of you have
any idea what it is?
OK! This one
isn't wild.
It's one of my
lilies
but I couldn't leave
it out.
My wish for you
today:
If you need rain,
I hope you get it.
If you want some
sun, I hope it
arrives.
Whatever the weather,
embrace your day and
make it a good one!

Jill, Thanks for becomeing a "follower" - I'm doing the same with your blog. Looks like you have some lovely posts. I think we are both "flower and nature" lovers. AND, anybody that likes the "Wizard of Oz" has to be OK!!!! I'm from Kansas so I'm pretty partial to that movie too. Have a great weekend--I'll see you soon. Mickie :)
This is a gorgeous lilly in red! I love all flowers, especially the lily, and of course sunflowers. Very nice photograph.
Love the flowers. I have the say the unidentified flower is my favorite. We will take some of that rain you are giving away. Thanks!
Beautiful blooms!
(Sorry that I'm always a day late commenting on your posts. I usually do my blog reading in the mornings.... the rest of the day sometimes gets too crazy to have the time!)
Have a good Friday - and a great weekend. Hope the sun shines on you!
You have captured the beauty of these flowers. Lovely photos.

Wow, your blog is growing by leaps and bounds. So many new followers, what's your secret? LOL And I'm so jealous of your gorgeous flowers. One of these days I have to stop dreaming/whining about it and actually get out there and plant some flower gardens!!
